**Twins Streak Tested as They Face Brewers Amid Injury Concerns**

MILWAUKEE, WI – The Minnesota Twins, the hottest team in baseball, continue their road trip with a three-game series against the Milwaukee Brewers at American Family Field, starting Friday. The Twins (24-20) bring an 11-game winning streak into the series, fueled by dominant pitching, which has been unmatched since April 22nd. Joe Ryan pitched a strong game Friday, giving up only two hits and nine strikeouts in six innings.

However, the Twins’ success is tempered by growing injury concerns. The outfield collision between Carlos Correa and Byron Buxton in Thursday’s game against the Orioles resulted in concussion protocol for both players. Willi Castro also left Friday’s game after fouling a ball off of his right knee.

The Brewers (21-23), still below .500 after a rocky start to the season, will look to defend their home turf. The Brewers have a few players on the injured list. They will have Rhys Hoskins, who is on a hot streak, and dominate reliever Nick Mears who leads the majors in WHIP and the National League in ERA.

The pitching matchups for the series are as follows:

* **Friday:** Twins RHP Joe Ryan vs. Brewers RHP Chad Patrick
* **Saturday:** Twins RHP Pablo López vs. Brewers RHP Tobias Myers
* **Sunday:** Twins TBA vs. Brewers RHP Freddy Peralta

Following the series in Milwaukee, the Twins will return home for a six-game homestand against AL Central rivals Cleveland and Kansas City.
